Abstract

The present invention is to provide a supporting mechanism disposed on a hammock for supporting a mattress, and the supporting mechanism includes a folding component and a plurality of supporting components. The folding component is disposed on a central position of the hammock, and the folding component includes an upper surface, a lower surface and an avoiding section passing through the upper surface and the lower surface. The plurality of supporting components is disposed around the folding component and for supporting the mattress. An end of each of the plurality of supporting components is pivotally connected to the folding component, and the other end of each supporting component is fixed on an edge position of the hammock. The operation of the supporting mechanism is easy so that the hammock and the bedstead can be folded or unfolded together. Accordingly, the present invention is to provide a crib therewith.

Claims (26)

1. A supporting mechanism disposed on a hammock for supporting a mattress, the supporting mechanism comprising:

a folding component disposed on a central position of the hammock, the folding component comprising an upper surface, a lower surface and an avoiding section passing through the upper surface and the lower surface, a through hole formed on the hammock and corresponding to the avoiding section wherethrough a hand is capable of being inserted to operate the folding component; and

a plurality of supporting components disposed around the folding component and for supporting the mattress, an end of each of the plurality of supporting components being pivotally connected to the folding component, and the other end of each of the plurality of supporting components being fixed on an edge position of the hammock.

2. The supporting mechanism of claim 1 , wherein the avoiding section is a another through hole disposed on a central position of the folding component.

3. The supporting mechanism of claim 1 , wherein the folding component comprises an annular structure and a resilient structure, the avoiding section is enclosed by the annular structure, the annular structure comprises an opening communicated to the avoiding section, and the resilient structure is disposed in the opening for enlarging or shrinking the avoiding section.

4. The supporting mechanism of claim 3 , wherein the resilient structure is a spring.

5. The supporting mechanism of claim 1 , wherein the avoiding section is a concave disposed on a lateral position of the folding component.

6. The supporting mechanism of claim 1 , wherein the folding component is sewed on the hammock.

7. The supporting mechanism of claim 1 , wherein the folding component comprises a base and a pivoting portion connected to the base and pivoted to the plurality of supporting components.

8. The supporting mechanism of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of supporting components is arranged radially around the folding component.

9. The supporting mechanism of claim 1 , wherein each supporting component comprises a retracting structure, the supporting mechanism is expanded as the retracting structure is stretched, and the supporting mechanism is folded as the retracting structure is retracted.

10. A crib comprising:

a bedstead;

a folding mechanism disposed on a bottom of the bedstead;

a hammock installed on the bedstead;

a mattress disposed on the hammock; and

a supporting mechanism disposed on the hammock for supporting the mattress, the supporting mechanism comprising:

a folding component disposed on a central position of the hammock, the folding component comprising an upper surface, a lower surface and an avoiding section passing through the upper surface and the lower surface; and

a plurality of supporting components disposed around the folding component and for supporting the mattress, an end of each of the plurality of supporting components being pivotally connected to the folding component, and the other end of each of the plurality of supporting components being fixed on an edge position of the hammock.

11. The crib of claim 10 , wherein the avoiding section is a first through hole disposed on a central position of the folding component.

12. The crib of claim 10 , wherein the folding component comprises an annular structure and a resilient structure, the avoiding section is enclosed by the annular structure, the annular structure comprises an opening communicated to the avoiding section, and the resilient structure is disposed in the opening for enlarging or shrinking the avoiding section.

13. The crib of claim 12 , wherein the resilient structure is a spring.

14. The crib of claim 10 , wherein the avoiding section is a concave disposed on a lateral position of the folding component.

15. The crib of claim 10 , wherein the hammock comprises a bed bottom and a bed bumper connected to edges of the bed bottom, and the bed bottom comprises another through hole corresponding to the folding mechanism.

16. The crib of claim 10 , wherein the plurality of supporting components is arranged radially around the folding component.

17. The crib of claim 10 , wherein each supporting component comprises a retracting structure, the supporting mechanism is expanded as the retracting structure is stretched, and the supporting mechanism is folded as the retracting structure is retracted.
